Pokemon SoulSilver Special Aside 5: When will you explain this draconian love

This is the third Special Aside entry to introduce the new Pokemon joining the team for our upcoming Kanto journey. It will be the last one until we're ready for our next actual playing session, though there will be one more after next session (since we can't get the fourth recruit we're planning on until we have the National Dex.)

Previously, we met Badgertwo, the fruit of a half-finished and all-unethical project to breed the perfect weapon, now rescued and learning what it means to enjoy life the way "imperfect" Pokemon do. We also met Rock Biter, a shy yet dutiful electronic sentinel searching for meaning beyond its service. While they come from different circumstances, each will need to learn how to forget everything they're "supposed" to be and to play and have fun, like Ethan and his Marill.

Now, prepare to change gears as we meet someone who is all about the fun. Meet a dazzling and flamboyant performer who is well familiar with the partying scene.
